Apple and AT&T have sold over 1 million iPhone 3G S models in just 3 days. The ne OS has been downloaded over 6 million time since Wednesday.

CUPERTINO, California—June 22, 2009—Apple® today announced that it has sold over one million iPhone™ 3GS models through Sunday, June 21, the third day after its launch. In addition, six million customers have downloaded the new iPhone 3.0 software in the first five days since its release.

Before I upgraded to the new iPhone 3.0 OS I updated my apps and tried to sync it to my iPhone and I got a little surprise. I got a popup stating that 3 of my apps are not compatible with my iPhone. After I upgraded to iPhone 3.0 OS everything is good. All my apps updated just fine. But if you have an iPod Touch and are not planning to install the latest OS make sure to check out your apps before you update them. If you update them they might not work on the older OS.

Apple has released the newest OS and SDK for the iPhone to the world. Got get it while it is hot. Let us know what you think of it. I’ll post a review a little later today.

With the release of iPhone 3.0 OS only a 2 days away Apple has started updating apps in the iTunes Apps Store  with the new ratings for apps. I was looking around in the games section and I found QL Bikini Beach Edition and it is Rated 12+ for “Infrequent/Mild Sexual Content or Nudity”. Is Apple going to open up the iPhone Apps section and allow Adult type content?

Here is a run down of all the iPhone rumors over the past few weeks. There are a couple rumors about a 4GB iPhone and having 4 models of the iPhone. I hope this becomes a reality. I thinks that the iPhone Market share would double in a less than a year if they did this. One other rumor is that the iPhone is going to have add Parental Controls for Apps. I hope they do this. It would allow Apple to lessen the restriction on the Apps that get submitted. I mean no more rejected apps because you can read the Kama Sutra. Now to the list of rumors.
